Time to bust out the Instagram hashtags – we’re about to take a look at what Canadians love to eat! #yum #poutine #Canada #omnomnom

We’ve narrowed down the list to four delicious and typical Canadian munchies:

First and foremost, you can’t say “Canada” without thinking of our most famous and original idea: tossing some cheese curds on delicious golden fries and then slathering on some hot, creamy gravy! That’s right—POUTINE—the iconic and delicious staple of any Canadian’s diet. Diving into a well-deserved, heavenly bowl of poutine is truly Canadian.

Second on the list is as equally famous as poutine – maple syrup! This liquid gold cannot be beat. The best thing about our amazing tree sap is its versatility! You can drown some fluffy waffles in it, marinate some famous salmon with it or even take a page out of Quebec’s “sugar shack” book and mix it in with some baked beans (and everything else on your plate). My personal favorite: a maple syrup taffy pull, when fresh, hot syrup is poured on cool snow and rolled onto a stick, making for one of the best lollipops ever—and it’s all natural. No matter how you eat it, it’s guaranteed #droolworthy!

The third thing Canadians can’t get enough of: international food! Whether it’s chowing down on a shawarma on the go or loading up on Chinese food – you are sure to be quite content. From sushi to Indian food platters to pierogies, our (very spoiled) Canadian taste buds highlight the amazingly rich and diverse culture our country benefits from.

Last, but definitely not least, TIM HORTONS! If every Canadian doesn’t at least wake up to a steaming cup of coffee from one of our favourite coffee shops, they’re chowing down on a Timbit or 5 on the go! It’s so ingrained into Canadian society that it’s often the first thing we ask for once getting home from our journeys abroad.

I may be a little biased, but I’d say that Canadians have the best food around! What’s your favourite Canadian food? Let us know in the comments!
